With a sudden fear clutching at her heart she held the little flame lower.... She groped her way half-blindly down the stairs, the candle left behind. As she reached the foot a stamping sounded upon the porch outside the living-room door. She ran toward it, never had sound of human approach been so madly welcome. Before she could reach the door a knock fell upon it.
Troubled by a deep danger drawing near, Kaid had drawn him into his tough service, half-blindly catching at his help, with a strange, almost superstitious belief that luck and good would come from the alliance; seeing in him a protection against wholesale robbery and debt were not the English masters of finance, and was not this Englishman honest, and with a brain of fire and an eye that pierced things?

With a smothered shriek Mary Burton dropped the tape as though it had scorched her fingers. She groped her way half-blindly to the chair by Jefferson's desk, and, sinking into it, buried her face in her crossed arms. She could not have shed a tear or uttered a word.
